Applique Circle DOMINATION


Many years ago I used to play ultimate frisbee every Sunday. And later when I'd talk to my now husband he would ask me...did you dominate? He was mostly joking but partly wondering if I was in a good mood which depended on how the game went! So, when I tackle any new project I only have plans to dominate. And applique circles are my new target.


If you're like me, you often see beautiful quilts, bags, etc. with perfectly appliqued circles. I love the look and I've decided that I (and YOU) deserve perfect applique circles too! Here I will describe how to create applique circles and hope you find it helpful whether you've never done it before, or have your own method.


I've used the textile created from the Electric Bubblegum Patchwork Sashiko Kit for these applique circles. If you want some for your own, you can get the kit here!


Materials Needed:

  1. Patchwork Sashiko Textile or quilting cotton

  2. Pellon 70 Peltex Sew-in Stabilizer

  3. Object from which to trace a circle (I used a biscuit cutter!)

  4. Washable pencil or pen

  5. Needle, thread & scissors

  6. Iron (starch if desired)

Watch the videos below to achieve applique circle perfection! (Note: these are the first videos using a new recorder...and my settings caused some blurriness in the action. I'm learning!)

STEP 1: Introduction

STEP 2: Materials Needed

STEP 3: Cut out the template

STEP 4: Cut out the textile/fabric

STEP 5: Basting stitch

STEP 6: Iron

STEP 7: Finish that circle!


I hope this tutorial has given you the confidence to dominate those circles! Stay tuned to see what I do with my new applique pieces. Try it for yourself and use the tag #appliquecircledomination if you post a photo!

And now, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation is paying link respects to Siller and the many that have fallen serving the nation through a fitting horological tribute. A William Wood link Watches piece unique is currently link being auctioned by the organization, and 100% of the proceeds go towards the Fallen First Responder Home Program, a program set up by the organization to completely pay off the mortgages of families who lost a service member in the line of duty or to a 9/11-related illness.

Well, we got home and there was a link major problem. My mom couldn't find that specific Swatch. Filene's in Manchester didn't have it. She called all the other Filene's in New Hampshire – no luck. On a last-ditch effort, my mom called my Aunt Susie, who worked at a Filene's in link Connecticut. Aunt Susie put us on hold for about 15 minutes, and then finally, she got link back on the phone and said, "Nope, we don't have it here, either."

To end on an extra special note, be sure to be subscribed and waiting for next week's link episode as it's the start of a new special series that we simply cannot wait to share. It's going to be great. Until then, just press link play and link thanks so much for listening.

Cartier produced link the vast majority of these watches in link yellow gold but also made some in white gold. For example, link less than 10 percent of the Tank Louis examples I've documented are white gold; interestingly, all are also clustered in a few tight serial ranges.
